Item Description

***Located in Mobile.***



Selling my 2001 prairie 300 because I'm pissed and too stubborn to pay someone a few hundred bucks to fix my mistake. The bike ran good but had the occasional sputter on when gicing it full throttle before it was warm so I decided to clean the carb. Took it apart and can't get it running right so I am 100% sure it is a carb issue. Bought a carb kit and replaced the jets and still can't get it to run right so I'm over it. If I take it to the shop I'll sell it for $1500, otherwise I'll take $1000 firm.





2wd with selectable low gear
automatic
winch
plastic is in good condition
Kolpin gun boot & mount
Brand new battery

Cranks up with the push of a button and idles great. Stalls when giving it gas. I've got better things to do in the evenings than break my head against the wall trying to get this thing adjusted...like painting my nails.



Here's a video of it a few minues ago. I will put it back together

I bet someone here can fix it cheap for you, so you have time to paint your nails...camo?

 

[jsh904]

Hot pink......

 

[Pompnewbie]

Fuschia?

 

[FrankT]

Hot pink with those camo green lines through them! Mobile is a bit far for me, otherwise I might be all over this...good deal

I'm gonna go back out to the garage and tear it apart for the 100th time and and try to figure out what I didn't clean or adjust right...

 

[FrankT]

Your fuel OK, no debris in the tank, line not breaking down inside?

 

[jsh904]

All lines are new, tank is clean, petcock is good. Took the fuel filter off and opened the petcock to make sure I have good flow and confirmed that I do. The problem is carb related and is more than likely something stupid I overlook but I cant figure it out for the life of me.

I hate when that happens and carbs are so finicky.

go to ebay and search your make and model for carb's... there is some folks in south florida that make aftermarket carbs for atv's and m/c's.
i bought 2 carbs from them several years ago for our honda recons.
no adjustments were needed and are perfect fit.
iirc, they were $98 shipped each.

i will try and find the company name and contact for you.
good luck

Dang, thanks for that info. Unfortunatley they dont carry carbs for the Prairie. Gonna strip it down and rebuild one more time tonight.
